The recent onslaught of ‘Pantone’ samples that hit eBay was one of the more interesting sub-stories of early 2012, giving us a swift reminder of 2010’s Jordan Brand ‘For The Love Of The Game’ showcase that was on display during the World Basketball Festival. Not to say that a University Blue/White colorway had never been done, but when the entire set of Air Jordans comes together and is anchored by such an iconic colorway, it’s hard not to taken aback by Tinker Hatfield’s unparalleled vision in design and architecture. Even this Air Jordan XII Pantone sample, which we’ve seen plenty of times in stores and on our feet, doesn’t fail in giving us a re-invigorated sense of excitement – as if we were seeing the Air Jordan XII for the first time. The detailed gallery below awaits you so take a look and let us know how badly you want a release to go down! via sole-land
